polredabs() behavior change


Hi,

I have a question about the following modification:

revision 1.111
date: 2002/10/25 16:45:49;  author: karim;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 -2
reduce number of stored elements in smallvector part of polredabs()

Before this change:

? #polredabs(x^32-126*x^28-252*x^26+6017*x^24+33228*x^22+31878*x^20-119124*x^18-119820*x^16+228168*x^14+90738*x^12-251316*x^10+119633*x^8-15156*x^6+1278*x^4+36*x^2+1,4)
8

After:

? #polredabs(x^32-126*x^28-252*x^26+6017*x^24+33228*x^22+31878*x^20-119124*x^18-119820*x^16+228168*x^14+90738*x^12-251316*x^10+119633*x^8-15156*x^6+1278*x^4+36*x^2+1,4)

Was it done on purpose, and if so, what's the motivation?

Thanks

Igor
